The U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission have decided to continue the antidumping duty orders on sodium nitrite from Germany and China. This decision is based on findings that removing these orders could lead to dumping practices and harm U.S. industries. The notice confirms that U.S. Customs will keep collecting the duties for imports of sodium nitrite, and the orders will remain in effect as of February 5, 2025. The government plans to review these orders again in five years to determine if they should remain in place.
Simple Explanation
The people in charge in the United States have decided to keep special rules that make sure sodium nitrite, a chemical, isn't sold at unfairly low prices by Germany and China, because if they didn't, it could hurt businesses in the U.S.
